520 |a This article investigates an ethnically mixed, nonterritorial community centered around a rabbi of Moroccan origin. Through exploring the unusual stage of this rabbi's sanctification and of the establishment of the community itself, the idiosyncratic combination of traditional North African Jewish elements and Ashkenazi Hassidic elements creates a syncretism that is prominent for the veneration of saints, which serves the rabbi as an instrument for legitimizing his own status and as a way of consolidating his congregation. The source of the community's attraction, as well as its rabbi's charisma, lies in its liminal, socially ambiguous status and location, and transcendence of ethnic and cultural boundaries.
